Abstract

Epilepsy is a common neurological condition in women of childbearing age. Patients with epilepsy should be carefully advised in pre-pregnancy counseling as well as during pregnancy, with particular emphasis on the level of fetal safety of antiepileptic treatment.

The role of this review was to present the approach to this pathology in pregnant women and its management for good neonatal and maternal outcomes.
